Bio

Why Dartmouth? I was split between Dartmouth and a couple other places until I attended Dartmouth's admitted student weekend, Dimensions. All the people I met--professors, current students, and prospective students--were incredibly friendly, and that essentially made my decision for me.

How long have you been riding and what got you interested in riding? I rode off and on for five years during elementary and middle school, but stopped during high school. I was obsessed with horses and ponies as a kid, and before I started riding, would ride my bike around my backyard pretending I was horseback riding!

Tell me something interesting about you that might come as a surprise to your teammates. I'm a total running, cross-country, and track and field (high school, college, and professional) nerd.

What other activities are you involved in on campus? I am co-president of the Dartmouth Rotaract Club, intern at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, and research at the Geisel School of Medicine. I also am a Sexpert and a member of Medical Students for Choice.

What are your future plans? If all goes well, medical school and becoming a women's health care provider.
